I just got off the phone with Suffern coaches Joe Biddy and Tom McTaggart who were calling in the results of the super seven-team (Suffern, Carmel, Clarkstown South, Lakeland-Panas, White Plains, Mamaroneck, Mahopac) meet at Bear Mountain, 3.0 miles.
McTaggart agreed with me that this mega meet that the feel of an invitational. Kinda like a dry run for the runners to get into the feel of things.
He was really impressed with Gina Talt from Mamaroneck and felt Mahopac’s team improved a lot.
Here are the top 20 finishers.
